Adding a Google site verification TXT record in GoDaddy is a simple process. After logging into your GoDaddy account, click on the Domains tab. Under the “Domains” heading, click on the “Verification” link next to the domain you wish to add a Google site verification TXT record. On the next page, click on the “Add a TXT Record” link. In the “TXT Record Name” field, type in the name of the Google site verification TXT record you wish to add. In the “ TXT Record Description” field, type a brief description of the Google site verification TXT record. In the “ TXT Record Key” field, type in the key you received from Google.

PRO TIP: If you are trying to add a Google site verification TXT record in GoDaddy, be aware that there is a known issue with the GoDaddy DNS interface that can cause your verification record to be entered incorrectly. Be sure to double-check the record before saving it, or you may not be able to verify your site.

Click on the “Add TXT Record” button. On the next page, click on the “Verify TXT Record” button. Enter the verification code you received from Google in the “Verification Code” field. Click on the “Verify TXT Record” button. On the next page, click on the “Submit” button. After your Google site verification TXT record has been added to your GoDaddy account, you can now use it to verify the domain in Google Domains.
